Why on earth are so many willing to throw away their credibility by allowing generative AI software to write content for them?<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s a head-scratcher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This isn\u2019t to say that thought leaders can\u2019t or shouldn\u2019t leverage AI to enhance their influence, reach, and content production efforts. They can and should, for a variety of reasons. However, SMEs shouldn\u2019t just hand over the controls to emerging AI developments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the contrary, all business leaders must weigh the authenticity-related and ethical consequences of using AI for content creation. That way, they can get all the benefits and value from generative AI platforms like ChatGPT and Bard without tarnishing their reputations by publishing lackluster posts, articles, and videos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Striking a Balance: Making Smarter Content Decisions With Smart AI Products<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Again, this isn\u2019t a call for ignoring generative AI. It\u2019s about taking the steps to use it appropriately. Thought leaders are thought leaders because of their unique experiences and expertise. AI can\u2019t replicate those attributes no matter how \u201csmart\u201d AI becomes. Certainly, anything that uses AI can be an asset, but it shouldn\u2019t become the sole vehicle a thought leader relies upon to stand out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The truth is that AI content is very easy to spot by most human publishers, editors, and writers. And it\u2019s quickly becoming seen as an annoyance rather than a novelty. With this in mind, thought leaders would be wise to apply a few strategies that allow them to lean into AI without giving it the opportunity to undermine their perceived integrity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>1. Understand the multifaceted risks of giving AI complete thought leadership content control.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are countless potential risks and challenges associated with delivering so-called \u201cthought leadership content\u201d that has barely been seen by the thought leader. The first is a loss of genuineness. AI-fueled copy doesn\u2019t tend to have the same connection-building spark and spunk as human-written copy does. Secondly, we can\u2019t overlook the ethical considerations of biases and errors in AI algorithms. Thought leaders who blindly trust AI-generated data points without inserting an iota of human validation may find themselves in a difficult position later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another problem with AI-generated content is that it pulls from the same information as all the other AI-generated content out there without differentiation. AI doesn\u2019t \u201csee\u201d a topic from a unique point of view. This is why AI copy can have a very robotic and stale feel to it rather than posing an opinion that few people have heard. (And the opinion is frequently backed up by the thought leader\u2019s personal experiences, which is something the AI couldn\u2019t know about.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>2. Understand the benefits of using generative AI technologies.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For all its obstacles, generative AI isn\u2019t the perennial Bad Guy. Far from it. Thought leaders who ethically and pragmatically<a href=\"https:\/\/www.interodigital.com\/webinar-unlocking-the-power-of-ai-in-digital-marketing\/\">\u00a0<\/a>embrace generative AI solutions can gain advantages. For one, they\u2019ll be more advanced than their peers who aren\u2019t learning new skills or adapting to changing products. Nothing says \u201crespected leader\u201d more than someone who\u2019s eager to dive into the latest trends, innovations, and best practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another upshot to using AI as a thought leader is getting access to AI products\u2019 hyper-fueled insights. AI can identify information that\u2019s useful to support a thought leader\u2019s arguments. Sure, the information should be verified, but that\u2019s not hard to do. It\u2019s especially not hard for an SME whose generative AI toolkit allows for super-efficient idea generation, rough draft outline construction, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>3. Get to know the tools on the \u2018AI for thought leaders\u2019 scene.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s impossible to get any boost from AI if a thought leader doesn\u2019t know the general AI landscape. Within giving a total rundown of all viable AI options, let\u2019s divide them up into categories, beginning with content creation and enhancement generators. These include Grammarly, Copy.ai, and Writesonic, all of which can be useful for developing articles, blog posts, and marketing copy. Canvia, while not an AI tool, offers additional AI-enhanced design features to improve the visual appeal of presentations and other assets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are so many others, too: email deployment platforms such as Mailchimp and Hubspot, and social media scheduling and analytics tools like Hootsuite and Sprout Social. Thought leaders who want to get and stay on top should pick one or two products and learn them well. (AI developers are great at providing training and instructions.) Starting slowly is the most reasonable way for thought leaders to avoid making missteps while gradually<a href=\"https:\/\/www.interodigital.com\/effective-ai-digital-marketing-strategies-for-business-growth\/\">\u00a0getting the most from generative AI solutions<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>4. Stay within your lane.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thought leaders have a talking point niche. It can be tempting for some to deviate from their niche because AI\u2019s responses seem authoritative. This decision can backfire, though. Thought leaders are best served when they let AI help them go deep, not wide beyond their comfort zone. Thought leaders need to keep this in mind and not inadvertently lose their core reputation for being skilled in a specific area or industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The secret is to see generative AI as an assistant and not let it do all the work. AI-powered content can help thought leaders tailor their messaging and expand their influence. However, AI shouldn\u2019t be given full rein because it can quickly erode a thought leader\u2019s status and audience trust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thought leaders have sometimes spent lifetimes building their reputations, and they shouldn\u2019t let generative AI content dull their shine. Instead, they should explore ways to leverage AI to get their unique perspectives and messages out more efficiently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>About the Author<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Erica Garman, VP of Marketing of\u00a0<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.interodigital.com\/\"><em>Intero Digital<\/em><\/a><em>, an experienced marketing strategist with over 12 years of experience in digital marketing.
